The Best Kids and Family CDs of 2009

The Fids and Kamily Music Awards have been announced! That's the yearly poll that compiles a list of the year's best CDs for kids and families. I was happy to be one of the 23 judges for a third straight year.

They Might Be Giants tops the judges' list once again with their fourth children's CD, Here Comes Science. It's hard to compete with TMBG and their appealing brand of quirky, catchy songs. But 2009 was a very good year for kids music, and the Fids and Kamily Awards list is a great place to start in your quest to find cool tunes for your young ones.

Another awesome place to find CDs for your family is The Pokey Pup, a fun online store that specializes in CDs, DVDs, books, and more. They've got free shipping for the next few weeks, so check them out.

While I'm mentioning great deals, here's one from kids singer Eric Herman, who is always a big favorite with my family. From now until Sunday all of his CDs are 50% off. Check out Eric's Cool Tunes store to get this great deal.

Finally, here is my own list of favorite CDs from the past year.

Idaho Dad's Best Kids CDs of 2009:

1. Eric Herman - What A Ride (my review)
2. Gustafer Yellowgold - Mellow Fever (my review)
